The death of Mrs. VIM. Gerhardt
removes devoted wife and mother,
and dignified christian lady. She
was truly a help. mate, and the bereav-
ed family have the heartfelt sympa-
thy of a feeling public. Mrs. Ger
hardt met life's trials and Affections
with a christian spirit of resignation,
and God never imposes burdens
which the soul can't bear, though the
body may sink under the Heavy
Hand. She had a high sense of honor
and Justice with which her life was
consistent. The darker the hour be-
fore the dawn of life everlasting, the
brighter the sunrise of Immortality.

The colored people know their own
better than strangers. To feel mans
pump and then tell the colored folks
that he is intelligent and influential,
makes them laugh in their sleeves at
the trickery and knavery. If phren-
ologist would practice on one of Mas
ter Hollis goats he would reach the
same results in more practical way,
and without giving him an old rag
or shoe to chew. If left alone by the
white politicians the colored people
have sense enough to attend to their
own business. They know their true
friends, and can tell who is fit to ele-
vate them, and who needs elevation
more than they do. Politics elevates
nothing and nobody, and the white or
colored man who would lead his race
must be true christian leader and
not a willing personal or political tool.
